1958 Topps #150 Mickey Mantle SGC NM/MT 88

Graded NM/MT 88 by SGC. Stunning high-grade example of what is universally recognized as one of Mantle's most striking and popular cards. Mantle had just come off back-to-back MVP years (1956 and 1957) and was looking for the trifecta in 1958. The image used on the card features a young "Mick" set against a bright orange background. Pack-fresh gem with flawless colors and gloss, four sharp corners, and perfect centering. The only reason we can see this card not grading MINT is the slightly to the left centering on the reverse and a very slight background print mark. This is a very strong card. Magnificent high-grade example of Mickey Mantle, the key card from the 1958 Topps set. The equivalent SMR value for the assigned grade is $2,600. Reserve $500. Estimate $1,000/$2,000.SOLD FOR $3,231.25
